Weaving Magic Into the New Year: Turning Dreams into Goals
The new year. 12 months of possibility, a fresh start, and, of course, the perfect reason to make a list of goals. But these aren’t the usual “lose weight, eat healthier” resolutions. This is about weaving a little magic into your life and setting goals that make you feel excited, inspired, and ready to conquer 2025! So, let’s talk about how we’re going to make this year enchanting, creative, and (most importantly) ours.
Enchanting Resolutions for 2025
This year, my resolution isn’t just about setting goals—it’s about creating an experience. It’s about setting intentions that align with my creativity, my passions, and, of course, my love of whimsy. Here’s what I’m focusing on in 2025:
Business Goals
Let’s face it: running a small business is a journey, and I’m ready to make it a little more magical this year. One of my big goals for 2025 is to finally start and maintain my blog. This will be a space to share my creative journey, the stories behind my crochet creations, and all the sparks of inspiration that drive my work.
I also want to dive deeper into the dark arts of social media marketing (hello, Instagram growth!) and learn how to connect more with all the dreamers and makers out there. And, of course, I’ve got my sights set on vending at bigger festivals—places where I can meet my people and share the magic in person.
Creative Projects
I’ve got a long list of crochet projects on my plate, and they’re all fueled by imagination! From owl and dragon shawls to kraken hats and whimsical flower designs, this year’s creations are going to be bursting with creativity.
But it’s not just about finishing projects—it’s about refining my aesthetic and ensuring everything I create feels like it belongs in a magical world. It’s a quest to find that perfect balance between my personal style and the vibe my audience loves. So, if you’re into dragons, mushrooms, or anything fantastical, you’re going to love what’s coming!
Personal Goals
Beyond the crochet hooks and yarn, I’ve got some personal resolutions, too. I want to read more in 2025—something I’ve missed doing as much since diving headfirst into crochet. I was gifted A Court of Thorns and Roses for Christmas, so that’s the first book on my list (because, let’s be real, I can never resist a well-built fantasy world).
I also want to finish some personal crochet projects that have been gathering dust—because even the most inspired makers have a pile of WIPs waiting for attention.
Crafting Magic: Highlights from My Collection
As I step into 2025, I’m excited to showcase a few special pieces from my collection that feel especially magical:
12-Pointed Star Blanket
This beauty is one of my favorite creations. With its intricate design, it’s the kind of piece that feels like it belongs in a mystical forest or a cozy cottage. Perfect for anyone who needs a little extra comfort (and magic) in their life.
Mandala Vest
A piece that feels like wearable art, the mandala vest is all about intricate designs and bold, flowing style. Perfect for layering, it brings a touch of bohemian elegance to any outfit while celebrating the beauty of symmetry and creativity.
Elf and Dragon Hoods
Whether you’re preparing for a fantasy festival or just want to add some whimsy to your day-to-day, these hoods are the perfect blend of playful and practical. They’re not just about keeping warm—they’re about embracing your inner character.
